Key result
Incremental load training in juvenile male basketball players elicited systolic blood pressure increases of 2.25 to 15.7 mmHg and diastolic increases of 0.43 to 11.37 mmHg.
Why the study?
The characteristics of basketball players' cardiac response to increasing load training needed to be explored.

What are the characteristics of cardiac response to increasing load training in juvenile male amateur basketball players?
Juvenile male amateur basketball players demonstrate strong cardiac adaptation and ventricular contractility during incremental load exercise.
BP rises during incremental training appear physiologic in young athletes; leaves open longitudinal validation of adaptation in broader cohorts.
Introduction: Basketball can enhance the physical fitness of young people, promote the growth and development of their bodies, and improve health and athletic ability. Objective: To explore the characteristics of basketball players’ cardiac response to increasing load training. Methods: By analyzing 12 juvenile male amateur basketball training athletes, when performing incremental load exercises on the treadmill, using a 12-lead electrocardiograph to record the electrocardiogram, HR, and blood pressure responses for each level of exercise. Results: The mean heart rate of the basketball players before movement was 82.45± 11.44 bpm, slightly higher than the heart rate at rest. Depending on the exercise load, the blood pressure should increase by 5 to 12 mmHg. Under different load training conditions, each level of blood pressure in the Bruce treadmill test procedure should increase 12.5 ~ 44mmHg. The basketball player’s systolic pressure increased by 2.25 ~ 15.7mmHg, diastolic pressure increased by 0.43 to 11.37 mmHg. Conclusions: In basketball players, the psychological stress is less than that of the average person performing the same exercise. The strong ability to adapt to exercise under incremental load training, the contractility of the ventricular muscles and the development of the heart are good. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.

Keyin Liu (2022) conducted an observational in Healthy amateur athletes (n=12). Incremental load exercises vs. Rest was evaluated on Electrocardiogram, heart rate, and blood pressure responses. Incremental load training in juvenile male basketball players elicited systolic blood pressure increases of 2.25 to 15.7 mmHg and diastolic increases of 0.43 to 11.37 mmHg.
